Change is hard, but good leaders can help (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have frequent conversations with leaders regarding change. The term "change is hard" is commonly heard. At times, we can underestimate just how hard it is. Some years back, a CEO of one of the world's largest retail companies spoke at a conference. It is a big box company that was adding online shopping to their business model. The CEO hired an outside expert to help navigate the change. The top leaders met with him. All were incredibly talented individuals who saw themselves as people who lea
Pausing: Leadership skill the world needs now (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you typed a message and quickly hit send, even as your brain is saying, You may want to think about this one first! Most of us have been there. That's why I wanted to write on restraint (pausing). It's an important message and one that bears revisiting. My columns often have repeated topics. Why? New readers. I have more than 30,000 subscribers to this column via LinkedIn. Reminders are helpful. Our brain can retain only so much. Back to pausing. I have seldom regretted pausing. I often wis
Don’t point a finger; hold out your hand (opens the original)
Read excerpt

While the person delivering the zinger may get laughs, what about the person being zinged? The same is true of sarcasm. Years ago, I delivered what I thought was a funny line. Afterwards, a kind person asked me if I knew what "sarcasm" meant. He then said it comes from "to scar" or "the tearing of the flesh." Since then, I have worked hard to remo
Who is really responsible for development? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I write more on personal and professional development than any other topic. In my book The Busy Leader's Handbook: How to Lead People and Places That Thrive, the first chapter sets the foundation for a person's development. The two main components are self-awareness and coachability. Willingness is key to both: willingness to hold up the mirror to oneself and willingness to seek out coaches and coaching. Please think of the coach's work in its broadest sense. A coach is someone or something we c
